MEPs from PvdA, CDA and Christian Union to put an end to taking leave the practices of budget airlines to self-employed pilots at the controls instead. So say the politicians Sunday night at the radio Radio Reporter (NPO Radio1)
.
In this so-called pay-to-fly-constructions applied to include Ryanair and Norwegian Airlines, a pilot begins with a debt and solves by essentially giving nothing to control the aircraft. He pays as if to fly.
According to a report from the University of Ghent is half the aviator corps that way with low cost airlines. They work through an agency, as self-employed, with a zero hours contract. Therefore, the safety would become an issue.
MEPs Peter van Dalen (Christian Union), Wim van de Camp (CDA) and Agnes Jongerius (PvdA) find that the construction should be prohibited. Jongerius even thinks that pilots be exploited. Secretary Wilma Mansveld (Infrastructure) wants Brussels tackles the labor constructions

Our son is 3 years to work with Ryanair and earns € 85, – per hour. In contrast to the KLM he comes to 900 hours per year. There are also better paid hours in, if they occur at other locations. They earn not bad, the first few years because of the need to study debt in Ireland to pay tax. And just have all inspections and tests to undergo like other pilots. Ryanair pilots are liked by other companies (if there is work).

I think all the drivers, self-employed or not, has an education that is job-related for 100%. This I can not say with full conviction of our representatives in The Hague and Brussels.

There are too many pilots. So now that cost a fraction of the amount that had to be paid earlier. So, increase demand and lower amount. How it works. Blame the flight schools: too many students recruited !!!

According to me it does not bother. If only one person is capable and healthy. Preferably as affordable as possible. so.

Do not whine, everything revolves around money, so it is now. Cheap fly entails risks. And the Dutchman wants simply getting cheaper. In other words we do not whine Dutch.

What have I hereby would like to say: The type rating of € 27,500 is for up to € 14,500 deductible as study.. Even though the pilot prospective worked in the meantime in the supermarket, the government assumes that he just can earn a living and the cost is not as such deductible. CDA was in the Cabinet when it was decided. So give these people who have invested so much as a government financial staircase after. Hey crazy that they want to fly.

What is the difference between a freelancer and an employee? An ordinary worker has no rights. Politics and governing authorities will not care how it goes with this EN-society. A European career is where it goes to them today.

Fortunately the ZZP pilots are better trained than the” drivers “in Brusssel! Dear travelers fly, do not worry, even the ZZP pilots always meet the training and experience requirements. And why ZZP? Because our government that encourages indefinitely until the new world order is established!

Many of these pilots are fervent VVD VVD ers now receive an answer, you’re stupid if you’re going to do a course of a 150,000 eurie if there is no employ for you, then invest you are wrong and you are not doing well and as long as you keep the VVD votes you will never enjoy a stable job, because the VVD has only BOSSES something and not really with you.

Most self-employed workers are not born of this wealth. But they can not get a permanent job. Even a good carpenter can start at several companies as if he wants to become as self-employed, and otherwise there is no interest.

Why should anyone be so necessary pilot? Solve that problem first go on. A pilot who is educated, knows that his study about € 150.000, – cost. This money must be repaid. Now there is a surplus of pilots. One should first look not to look at the training? And I do not agree at all, is that there is talk of self-employed drivers. That do not exist.

As the years and the pilots will be trained well only they are uitgebuid now. The safety is not compromised. These pilots about the financial water to the lips and dat.Want companies know they have to fly to read their rating to hold bevret valid and are thus blackmailed. Incidentally, this applies to every sector in Netherlands where people based on a 0 hour contract read flexible contracts must operate. Modern legal slavenhandel.Bedankt government !!

Well, if the masses think safe to fly for a few bucks around the world than they especially need to do so. If we are spared commemorations but when things go wrong, because big bulge own fault. Then alone the perpetrators tearful do on TV, politicians front.

What nonsense, pilots are well educated and intelligent people. They know quite who and why they work at the low-cost airlines. Security is like inside the Europeese airspace never compromised there monitoring this extensive organsatie on. Let our thick paid Europarlenmentariers without knowledge of the business meddle with it too will come certainly good, not so, see the Greek debacle, here they are capable of nothing and we just pay.

freelancers have to fight for every job and usually work better than people who get their salaries anyway. Total nonsense on the freelancer to blame veligheidsrisico programs.

I do not fly anymore. The government does not protect us (see the disaster in the Ukraine was already known that it was unsafe. The airline also protect us not by their freelancer (day laborers) structures.

Where interfering politicians involve? Is just the market mechanism that our government is.

ZZP construction has already gone down the tubes by cheap freelancers forces poles! this can therefore also called again.

Why even necessary, everyone must be self-employed there is beyond me. What is wrong to simply work for a boss? It’s getting high time that the EU is going to do something that low-cost airlines. Much more monitoring is the least
When does that stuff sometimes. Politicians without knowledge of things that already threaten legislation. Europe is unlivable.
